Please refer to lengthy Comment I already wrote concerning the outstanding care I received from Mary Palecek, PA.

October 29, 2018

Professional & always address care & concerns.

October 29, 2018

Everyone is always so nice & caring. I love how they always treat you with respect & care.

We really liked *Mary Jo. Very easy to speak with & listened to all our concerns.

September 29, 2018

Mary No is always kind, thorough and very patient with us on visits. David has had memory issues since his stroke in March of 2017. Mary Jo is gracious in reviewing his concerns several times without making him feel uncomfortable about his loss of meMary Jo is always kind, thorough & patient with David's visit & exam. She graciously repeats answers to his questions without making him feel foolish. He has had a stroke and it has affected his memory. I greatly appreciate her gentle, professional and understanding care. She is a true blessing to us and CTMF clinics.

Excellent provider.

September 24, 2018

very good experience

I have many medical issues, Mary Jo has taken over my rheumatology (sp) issues from Dr Nuwanu (sp) so, I have only seen her a few times. When I've needed info about making decisions about treatment, she has been prompt and very helpful in sorting out what the issues are. I have great confidence in her.

Doctor showed me some reports I had never seen before. Excellent doctor

September 13, 2018

I am concerned that I am no longer seeing a Rhematologist. Mary Jo was very nice, but I feel like I would like to have a doctor to ask my concerns. For example: Dr. Nwanu has been my caregiver since I was diagnosed with RA. I have been on the same medicine for four years. The first visit with Mary Jo my Leflumanide was cut in half and I don't know why. I would love to be able to ask a dr. my questions and concerns. Again, Mary Jo was great with my office visit, but I would like to have access to a dr when needed.

September 12, 2018

It truly has been a pleasure to know as a patient I feel I am in good hands to address my concerns of well being.

September 11, 2018

This was our first visit with Mary Jo. We had used Dr Nwaonu. We were very pleased with how she listened to us.

September 07, 2018

All has been a very good experience.

September 07, 2018

She is a wonderful provider. She is thorough and never made me feel rushed. She is trustworthy and I would definitely recommend her to family and friends.

Very good transfer! Will miss *Dr. Nwaonu, but feel her replacement will be great as well.

August 24, 2018

All staff friendly, helpful, and kind.

August 22, 2018

I really haven't went to her long enough to know her well.

August 20, 2018

The staff is wonderful. Mary Jo has been an awesome provider and I am very pleased with the level of care she gives me.

First time with *Mary Palecek - (*Dr. M. left).

June 28, 2018

They are always kind and caring.

June 22, 2018

First visit with Mary Jo after Dr Nawanu moved. Very happy with Mary No and her exam and expertise. My hubby has had a stroke so I do the surveys because I go with him to appts.

June 22, 2018

Since we moved to East Texas our office care and hospital care through CTMF has been Excellent. We see a variety of specialists and easily recommend their services to those we know.

June 22, 2018

love this clinic.

June 22, 2018

very happy with my provider Mary Jo

June 13, 2018

I waited for an hour for my appointment & left without seeing the PA.

June 12, 2018

ALL GREAT!

June 12, 2018

ALL GREAT!

June 11, 2018

My care provider is a great person I truly hopes she stays longer than Dr Jane Nawanu

June 11, 2018

I recommend this practice to everyone I know. The staff is wonderful and behaves like a team in an effort to give me the best experience possible.

June 11, 2018

I always feel like my concerns are addressed and I don't feel rushed or hurried. I appreciate being treated as a human being as opposed to cattle being hurried thru the chute. (For lack of a better way to describe it) :) It means a lot to be treated with respect and patience when dealing with an auto immune disease that causes pain and other symptoms. I love that Dr. Cohen and Mary Jo really listen to me and honestly that is what brings me back appointment after appointment. Sometimes I have many different complaints and sometimes not. Either way I really feel like I am important and my concerns are a priority. I recommend/refer Dr. Cohen and the TMF rheumatology clinic to my friends and family.

This was my first visit with Ms. Palechek and I found her to be very helpful. I appreciated her forthright explanations and method of conversation.

June 07, 2018

I have been with this practice for 19 years. I consider Dr. Cohen and his staff to be integral to my wellbeing and I appreciate their professional demeanor and their kindness towards their patients.

June 05, 2018

I miss Dr Jane but I'm glad this Dr is here. she seems very concerned about my concerns

June 01, 2018

*Mary Palecek was extremely nice & could explain things very well.

May 31, 2018

Always have a good experience.

April 06, 2017

I love *Mary Jo. She is an amazing NP & should be highly valued & appreciated!

April 05, 2017

Can't say enough good things about Mary Jo Palacek. I was very sad to learn she was leaving the practice. She is a keeper, and getting her back on any terms would benefit the practice overall.

March 29, 2017

the survey is too long

March 26, 2017

Mary is an excellent nurse practitioner! She is extremely through and listens to my concerns. I always feel like I have received excellent care when I see Mary. I can honestly say she is among one of the best HCPs I have ever seen. Her male nurse is very kind and through, too.

March 22, 2017

Mary Jo is incredible. She takes her time with you and makes sure you don't feel like cattle being rushed thru the gates. Bless her for that!

March 21, 2017

I am very please with the service I received.

March 17, 2017

The overall experience in the Tyler Lindale area is getting terrible & cost extra money.

March 17, 2017

The provider could not do procedure & sent me to another dr.

March 13, 2017

NA

March 13, 2017

very good office visit

February 16, 2017

I love my dr. & I am so sad he is moving, on to another city to another job. I will truly miss him. I love my NP also & I hope I will get to see her as much as I have been. I met my new dr. & I don't know if I will like her or not.
